It Ain’t Me Babe.

Lyrics and Vocals: American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan.

It Ain’t Me Babe.

Go away from my window,
Leave at your own chosen speed.
I’m not the one you want, babe,
I’m not the one you need.
You say you’re lookin’ for someone,
Who’s never weak but always strong,
To protect you and defend you,
Whether you are right or wrong,
Someone to open each and every door,
But it ain’t me, babe,
No, no, no, it ain’t me, babe,
It ain’t me you’re lookin’ for, babe.

Go lightly from the ledge, babe,
Go lightly on the ground,
I’m not the one you want, babe,
I’ll only let you down.
You say you’re looking for someone,
Who will promise never to part,
Someone to close his eyes for you,
Someone to close his heart,
Someone who will die for you and more,
But it ain’t me, babe,
No, no, no, it ain’t me babe,
It ain’t me you’re lookin’ for, babe.

Go melt back in the night.
Everything inside is made of stone,
There’s nothing in here moving,
And anyway I’m not alone.
You say you’re looking for someone,
Who’ll pick you up each time you fall,
To gather flowers constantly,
And to come each time you call,
A lover for your life and nothing more,
But it ain’t me, babe,
No, no, no, it ain’t me, babe,
It ain’t me you’re lookin’ for, babe.

Uisce Éireann Begins €1m Upgrade Of Templetuohy Water Supply.

Uisce Éireann has begun a €1 million upgrade of the Templetuohy, Co. Tipperary, Public Water Supply, in a project aimed at ensuring a safe, secure, and reliable drinking water supply for more than 800 customers in the area.

The works, which are now underway, will deliver significant improvements to the local water treatment plant, strengthening the system and ensuring ongoing compliance with national drinking water standards.

The Templetuohy supply is currently listed on the Environmental Protection Agency’s Remedial Action List (RAL), which identifies public water supplies requiring improvements. Uisce Éireann said the upgrade will address these issues through a more robust and advanced treatment process.

Key elements of the project include the installation of a modernised disinfection system and an enhanced monitoring process to ensure greater efficiency and reliability.

Ward and Burke Construction is carrying out the works on behalf of Uisce Éireann, with the upgrade expected to be completed by early 2026.
